imo the best dance to get on halloween theme nights is either tango or paso cos they fit the theme so well - so not surprised if Pixie has tango (she has been given best music/prop less routines so far)
And has always performed near the end of the show.

First Hallowe'en Waltz! And absolutely PERFECT for Sunetra and Brendan as a dance as well!

Mind reader. :P I've wanted it as a Waltz since I first heard it, it'd be amazing if they could go the full haunting, unearthly direction with it for Hallowe'en.

When was the last time someone danced a Viennese Waltz and Waltz in succession?

I don't think that's particularly related to Halloween week - Frankie said in a video for last week's show that she and Kevin tend to have those biscuits in training, nothing special. At least, I hope so... I've enough nightmares from the last time someone danced to Ghostbusters...

I've always thought, although not traditional, Rihanna's 'Disturbia' would be a good choice for a Tango / Argentine Tango - especially with the "bum bum bee dum"'s at the beginning which would be perfect for flicks of the leg and head jolts etc.

Louis and Flavia did a tango to that in 2012.

The staging, make-up, costumes,.....EVERYTHING was BRILLIANT about this dance


I really miss Flavia such a brilliant and innovative choreographer

Oh my gosh, how strange!

Strictly always seem to use music that I often say would suit a dance. Just yesterday they played 'Pencil Full Of Lead' in the background of a VT. Obviously this wasn't to a Jive or Samba as I'd anticipated, but it was still funny to think of them using the song in some form.

(I have to admit the music arrangement to Louis' Tango was horrific, slightly underwhelming for me).

Sunetra has been given a lucky break with a waltz esp after a VW - I hope you are right re ghostbusters

Zoe Ball did a Waltz American Smooth and a Viennese Waltz two weeks on the trot, but with a dance between them..

Carol Smillie did a Waltz followed by a Viennese Waltz...

Chris Hollins did a Group Viennese Waltz followed by a Waltz...

Kara Tointon did a Viennese Waltz and a Waltz two weeks on the trot, but with 4 dances between them (Semi-Finals/Finals)...

Harry Judd did a Viennese Waltz and a Viennese Waltz American Smooth two weeks on the trot, but with 2 dances between them (Semi-Finals/Finals)...

But no-one's ever gone straight from a Viennese Waltz to a Waltz before.

She doesn't say she's doing a Waltz exactly, she could've been refering to the VW she's just done but you are probably right....

Alison has Charleston, it's on the co-choreographer's (Jenny Thomas) Facebook page.
Jenny did both of last weeks Charlestons (assisted by Scott Cupit, recently on Dragon's Den) and I'll assume she'll do Steve's (she and her ex husband/dance partner, Ryan Francois did the Cola Charleston).

Not sure if you have to be her friend to see the post but I'll try and get a link.

I think Allison having the charleston is some sort of saving grace for her because Im pretty sure that she will survive next week with that dance.....it will be pretty entertaining Im sure .

That's been used as well, for the superior contemporary of the Cola Charleston: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGlscgwu0LA
